Supper Time Songtext
von Audra McDonald
Supper Time Songtext
Suppertime
I should set the table
′Cause it's suppertime
Somehow I′m not able
'Cause that man of mine
Ain't coming home no more
Suppertime
Kids′ll soon be yelling
For their suppertime
How′ll I keep from telling
That man of mine
Ain't coming home no more?
How′ll I keep explaining
When they ask me
Where he's gone?
How′ll I keep from crying
When I bring their supper on?
How can I remind them
To pray at their humble board?
How can I be thankful
When they start to thank the Lord?
Lord, suppertime
I should set the table
'Cause it′s suppertime
Somehow I'm not able
'Cause that man of mine
Ain′t coming home no more
Ain′t coming home no more
I should set the table
′Cause it's suppertime
Somehow I′m not able
'Cause that man of mine
Ain't coming home no more
Suppertime
Kids′ll soon be yelling
For their suppertime
How′ll I keep from telling
That man of mine
Ain't coming home no more?
How′ll I keep explaining
When they ask me
Where he's gone?
How′ll I keep from crying
When I bring their supper on?
How can I remind them
To pray at their humble board?
How can I be thankful
When they start to thank the Lord?
Lord, suppertime
I should set the table
'Cause it′s suppertime
Somehow I'm not able
'Cause that man of mine
Ain′t coming home no more
Ain′t coming home no more
